Noatum Logistics acquires 152 new long-haul trucks from Mercedes-Benz

Noatum Logistics, an AD Ports Group company and a global logistics management services provider, will buy 152 long-haul transport trucks from Mercedes-Benz to enhance its freight-forwarding operations in the Middle East.

The Mercedes Benz Actros advanced trucks are expected to enhance Noatum Logistics’ regional transport capacity by 6,000 tonnes and grow its fleet from approximately 450 vehicles to over 600.



While capable of handling containerised, reefer, and loose cargo, the vehicles will support customers across key industry sectors, including energy, polymers, food & FMCG, automotive, pharma & healthcare, and defence.

Furthermore, by generating significant fuel efficiency gains and reductions in Nitrogen Oxide and particulate emissions via its Euro 5 diesel engines, the acquisition also aligns with the company’s sustainability agenda, which includes achieving Carbon Neutral status by 2050.

Samir Chaturvedi, CEO of Noatum Logistics at AD Ports Group, commented: “Expanding our regional fleet with more efficient and sustainable solutions is not just an investment in our operations—it’s an investment in our customers. Beyond increasing capacity, our growing presence in the Middle East is also part of Noatum Logistics’ growing network spanning 26 countries, allowing us to seamlessly manage regional supply chains while connecting customers across all major global markets and trade lanes.”



The delivery is expected to be completed by the end of the second quarter of 2025. The new trucks will be integrated into Noatum Logistics’ state-of-the-art Control Tower telematics system, a centralised platform that leverages GPS technology and onboard diagnostics. This system will thereby allow for monitoring driver behavior and managing vehicle movements in real time.
